CEBU CITY, Philippines — Periodical exams and the typical grading system will not be encouraged for the new blended and modular learning that the schools will apply for Academic Year 2020-2021.
So far, more than 50 percent of students in the country has chosen printed modules for learning, which would entail a student getting printed lessons and exercises from school to be done at home. While the rest of the students opted for digital modules, which would entail modules being provided to the students through flashdrive or disc, and the television and radio complemented self-learning modules, which would use broadcasting to teach the students while they answer activity sheets.
Instead of quizzes or periodical exams, the students will be asked to submit a portfolio of essays, reflection papers, or other forms of output that will prove they have processed the information taught to them.
